Ogitchidag Gikinooamaagad

Ogitchidag Gikinooamaagad (means warrior teachers in the Ojibwe Language) is an art and culture based Peer Education Prevention Program for Native American adolescents. It teaches prevention and negotiation skills: increases knowledge about alcohol tobacco (and) other drugs, HIV, and other STDs; and builds self-esteem and positive cultural foundations among Native youth.

We are also a traveling Theater Program, we have multiple plays/skits that focus on health topics such as HIV.

If you have any questions or comments please contact me through my direct email.
